Abstract
A destination node receives a connection request packet which indicates a starting packet sequence number (PSN) associated with a source node. The destination node accepts a first connection corresponding to the connection request packet in response to the starting PSN being valid. In response to the source node closing the first connection, the destination node: sets an expected incoming PSN associated with the destination node to a greater of a current value of the expected incoming PSN and the starting PSN associated with the source node incremented by one; sends to the source node a close response message which includes the expected incoming PSN; and allows the source node to set the starting PSN to a greater of a current value of the starting PSN incremented by one and the expected incoming PSN associated with the destination node.
